    1. How are fire scenes different than regular crime scenes for investigators? The individual responsible for the crime will not be at the crime site when the crime is discovered. Forensic scientists have to rely on the evidence at the scene to piece together who might have committed the crime. Also fires and explosion can cause a great deal of damage to the crime scene. The evidence traditionally found at other crime scenes is likely to be destroyed or damaged at these crime scenes, making it necessary for forensic scientists to focus on other types of evidence in their investigation.…

Many rely on the CSI effects as real cases go to trial. People tend to look for the forensic evidence that was found at a crime scene. Law enforcement is watched by the public and media to obtain the correct evidence to bring due process.…
